Hi Graham and everyone, I'm forwarding this message from Martha re other Cady patriarchs here in the U. S. My particular Cady line does not link up with that of Nicholas--at least they're not in the published genealogies. Good hunting to all, Sue Cady List Mom ---------- > From: Dennis Panetti <dpanetti@freewwweb.com> > To: CADY-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [CADY-L] Nicholas and other patriarchs > Date: Thursday, July 15, 1999 2:35 PM > > Earlier, Suzanne and others were discussing whether there were Cady > progenitors other than Nicholas. > > I checked my copy of Orrin Peer Allen's 1910 "Descendants of Nicholas > Cady of Watertown Mass) and found, in his introduction, several > references to other Cadys.
